LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholder:

Financial markets lacked direction in the first half of 2015 as international headlines and questions regarding domestic interest rate policy resulted in increased investor uncertainty. Broad U.S. equity markets realized modest gains with the S&P 500 Index gaining 1.23%. Small cap stocks were the best performers domestically as the Russell 2000 Index returned 4.75%. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index declined -0.10% in the first half of the year driven by rising interest rates in anticipation of Federal Reserve moves later this year. As a result, ten-year U.S. Treasury bond yields stood at 2.35% versus 2.17% at the beginning of the year.

U.S. Economic Backdrop

Domestic economic data continues to point to moderate improvements throughout. Similar to last year, U.S. GDP growth was weak in the first quarter (+0.6%) followed by a rebound in the second quarter to +2.3%. Employment continued to improve with payroll increases averaging 208,000 per month along with a decline in the unemployment rate to 5.3%. Inflation remained muted with most major measures showing stable inflation below 2%. One headwind for the economy has been the strength of the dollar, which has hurt manufacturing and exports.

Going Forward

Double digit U.S. equity market returns in each of the last five years have left equity valuations at full value and it is likely that future equity returns will be tied to underlying economic strength and corporate earnings growth. As widely anticipated, we expect the Federal Reserve to begin raising interest rates later this year while keeping the pace of those increases moderate and tied to relevant economic data. While rate increases can have a negative effect on the bond prices, we believe that the gradual pace of increases will allow tactically managed fixed income portfolios to generate positive returns over time.

Portfolio Diversification

International developments in Greece and China as well as interest rate changes in the U.S. will continue to dominate headlines with a likely result to be an increase in

volatility in both global equity and fixed income markets. As market volatility increases, we believe the benefits of a diversified portfolio will increase as well with equity investments providing needed exposure to growth and fixed income investments providing income and principal stability. We hope you agree that the Bishop Street Funds continue to offer attractive investment options for your portfolio. Thank you for your continued interest and confidence in the Bishop Street Funds.

Sincerely,

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2015

The amounts included in the Notes to Financial Statements are in thousands unless otherwise noted.

 

1. ORGANIZATION

The Bishop Street Funds (the “Trust”) are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, management investment company. The Bishop Street Funds consist of a series of four funds (each a Fund, collectively the “Funds”) which includes the Strategic Growth Fund, Dividend Value Fund, High Grade Income Fund, and the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund. Each Fund is diversified, with the exception of Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund, which is non-diversified. Class A Shares of the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund are subject to a sales load as disclosed in the prospectus. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Funds’ prospectus provides a description of each Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The Trust is an investment company in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Therefore, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidelines for investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of assets, the reported amount 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 those estimates and such differences could be material.

Security Valuation

The Funds’ investments in equity securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ) including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded, or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. Debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents, if available. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price in the most advantageous market, if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the fair value for such securities. Such

      (unaudited)   

 

methodologies typically include matrix systems which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities and ratings. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents.

Investments in open-end and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in open-end and closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

Securities for which market prices are not the above methods are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Pricing Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Funds’ Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been delisted from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; or the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

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

   

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;

   

Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in active markets, etc.); and

 

June 30, 2015     www.bishopstreetfunds.com

 

43


Bishop Street Funds     (unaudited)   

 

   

Level 3 — Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.

As of June 30, 2015, all investments in the Strategic Growth Fund and the Dividend Value Fund investments were considered Level 1. There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 assets and liabilities. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, there were no Level 3 investments.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2015 in valuing the following Fund’s investments carried at value.

Federal Income Taxes

It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

The Funds evaluate 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. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 3 open tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

Security Transactions and Investment Income

Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Costs used in determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of securities are on the basis of specific identification. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date and dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date.

Discounts and premiums are accreted or amortized over the life of each security and are recorded as interest income. The High Grade Income and Hawaii Municipal Bond Funds use the effective interest method.

Classes

Class-specific expenses are borne by the applicable class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains/losses and non-class-specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets. Distribution fees are the only class-specific expense.

Expenses

Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to each of the Funds on the basis of relative net assets.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

The Strategic Growth and Dividend Value Funds declare and pay dividends from net investment income, if available, on a quarterly basis. Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid on a monthly basis for the High Grade Income and

Hawaii Municipal Bond. Any net realized capital gains will be distributed at least annually for all Funds. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Front-End Sales Commission

Front-end sales commissions (the “sales charges”) are not recorded as expenses of the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund. Sales charges are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares.

Cash Overdraft Charges

Per the terms of the agreement with MUFG Union Bank, N.A. the custodian of the Funds (the “Custodian”), if a Fund has a cash overdraft on a given day, it will be assessed an overdraft charge of the Prime Rate plus 4.00%. Cash overdraft charges are included in miscellaneous expenses on the Statements of Operations. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, there were no cash overdraft charges.

 

3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

Investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by Bishop Street Capital Management (the “Adviser”), a registered adviser and wholly owned subsidiary of First Hawaiian Bank. First Hawaiian Bank is a subsidiary of BancWest Corporation, itself a subsidiary of BNP Paribas. The Adviser is entitled to receive an annual fee of 0.74% of the average daily net assets of the Strategic Growth and the Dividend Value Funds, 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the High Grade Income Fund, and 0.35% of the average daily net assets of the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its advisory fee (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses (collectively, excluded expenses)) to the extent necessary to keep operating expenses at or below certain percentages of the respective average daily net assets through April 30, 2016. The contractual expense limitations are as follows:

 

Strategic Growth Fund, Class I Shares

     1.25

Dividend Value Fund, Class I Shares

     1.05

High Grade Income Fund, Class I Shares

     0.76

Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund, Class I Shares

     0.55

Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund, Class A Shares

     0.80

These fees and waivers are labeled on the Statement of Operations as “Investment Adviser Fees/Waivers.”

If at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser, Administrator, or Shareholder agent to reduce fees and make expense reimbursements, the Board may permit the Adviser to retain the difference between the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses

      (unaudited)   

 

and contractual expense limitations to recapture all or a portion of its prior expense reductions or reimbursements made during the preceding three year period during which this agreement was in place. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Adviser did not recapture any previously waived fees.

As of June 30, 2015, fees which were previously waived by the Investment Manager which may be subject to possible future reimbursement up to the expense cap in place at the time the expense were waived to the Adviser were as follows:

Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (“Columbia”) serves as the investment sub-adviser for the Strategic Growth Fund and the Dividend Value Fund, pursuant to a sub-adviser agreement. Columbia is entitled to receive from the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate based on the average daily net assets of the Strategic Growth Fund and the Dividend Value Fund, under the following fee schedule: 0.360% on the first $75 million; 0.350% on the next $75 million; 0.325% on the next $100 million; 0.300% on the next $250 million; and 0.250% on assets over $500 million.

 

4. ADMINISTRATIVE, CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT AND DISTRIBUTION SERVICES

The Funds and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Funds. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset based fee which will vary depending the number of share classes and the on the average daily net assets of the Funds. The Administrator has voluntarily agreed to waive its administrative fee to 0.12% of each of the Funds’ average daily net assets excluding the Hawaii municipal Bond Fund which is waived to 0.07% of its average daily net assets. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Funds were charged as follows for these services: $46 in the Strategic Growth Fund, $55 in the Dividend Value Fund, $74 in the High Grade Income Fund and $153 in the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Funds waived as follows for these services: $18 in the Strategic Growth Fund, $22 in the Dividend Value Fund, $30 in the High Grade Income Fund and $100 in the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund. These fees and waivers are labeled as “Administrative Fees/Waivers” on the Statement of Operations.

MUFG Union Bank, N.A. acts as custodian for the Funds. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Funds or which securities are to be purchased or sold by the Funds. These fees are labeled on the Statement of Operations as “Custody Fees.”

DST Systems, Inc. (“DST”) acts as the Transfer Agent of the Trust. As such, DST provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing and shareholder services to the Trust. These fees are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Transfer Agent Fees.”

SEI Investments Distribution Co. (“SIDCO”), the “Distributer” a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, acts as the Trust’s Distributor pursuant to the distribution agreement. The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of Class A Shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Plan provides that Class A Shares will bear the cost of their distribution expenses. SIDCO, as compensation for its services under the Plan, receives a distribution fee, computed daily and payable monthly, of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to each Fund’s Class A Shares. This fee is disclosed as “Distribution Fees, Class A” on the Statement of Operations.

The Trust has adopted and entered into a shareholder service plan and agreement with SIDCO. Each Fund pays to SIDCO a shareholder servicing fee not to exceed an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of all shares of each fund, which is computed daily and paid monthly. Under the shareholder service plan, SIDCO may perform, or may compensate other service providers for performing various shareholder and administrative services. SIDCO may also retain as profit any difference between the fee it receives and amount it pays to third parties. For the period, SIDCO paid the entire amount of fees received under the shareholder service plan to First Hawaiian Bank, the Parent Company of Bishop Street Capital Management, for shareholder services performed for the Funds. SIDCO has voluntarily agreed to waive 0.15% of its shareholder servicing fee to the extent necessary to keep operating expenses at or below certain percentages of the respective average daily net assets. These fees and waivers are represented as “Shareholder Servicing Fees/Waivers” on the Statement of Operations.

 

5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, and/or SIDCO. Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust other than the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) as described below, for serving as officers of the Trust.

A portion of the services provided by the CCO and his staff, who are employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Trust as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Trust’s Advisers and service providers as required by SEC regulations.

7. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with Federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for the reporting period may differ from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income/(loss), paid-in capital or accumulated net realized gain/(loss), as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.

The tax character of dividends and distributions declared during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

 

    Ordinary

For Federal income tax purposes, capital losses incurred may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Additionally, post enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.

During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, the Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund fully utilized unlimited capital loss carryforwards $260 to offset realized capital gains, and there were no Capital loss carryforwards that were not subject to expiration.

The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities held by the Strategic Growth, Dividend Value, High Grade Income, and Hawaii Municipal Bond Funds for Federal income tax purposes at June 30, 2015 were as follows:

8. RISKS

The Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund invests primarily in debt instruments in the state of Hawaii. The issuers’ ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in that state. In addition, each Fund’s investments in debt securities are subject to “credit risk,” which is the risk that an issuer will be unable, or will be perceived to be unable, to repay its obligations at maturity. Funds that invest primarily in high quality debt securities generally are subject to less credit risk than funds that invest in lower quality debt securities.

Certain debt securities are backed by credit enhancements from various financial institutions and financial guarantee assurance agencies. These credit enhancements reinforce the credit quality of the individual securities; however, if any of the financial institutions or financial guarantee assurance agencies’ credit quality should deteriorate, it could cause the individual security’s credit quality to change. Additionally, if any of the Funds concentrate their credit enhancements in any one financial institution, the risk of credit quality deterioration increases. The following table provides detail on the approximate percentage of each fund’s investments in securities with these types of enhancements, as well as the name of the entity providing the largest proportion of enhancements in the Fund.

(National Public Finance Guarentee Corporation)

The value of asset-backed securities may be affected by the credit risk of the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the financial institution(s) providing the credit support. In addition to credit risk, asset-backed securities and other securities with early redemption features are subject to pre-payment risk. During periods of declining interest rates, prepayment of loans underlying asset-backed securities can be expected to accelerate or an issuer may retire an outstanding bond early to reduce interest costs. A Fund’s ability to maintain positions in such securities will be affected by reductions in the principal amount of such securities resulting from prepayments, and its ability to reinvest the returns of principal at comparable yields is subject to the general prevailing interest rates at that time.

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

 

9. LINE OF CREDIT

The Funds, which are not jointly liable, entered into an agreement which enables them to participate in a $5 million unsecured committed revolving line of credit on a first come, first served basis, with MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”). The proceeds from the borrowings shall be used to finance the Funds’ short term general working capital requirements, including the funding of shareholder redemptions. Interest is charged to the Funds based on their borrowings during the period at the Bank current reference rate minus 1%.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Funds had the following borrowings under the line of credit:

Disclosure of Fund Expenses

 

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges (loads); and (2) ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, distribution and service (12b-1), shareholder service fees, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a mutual fund’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the mutual fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the mutual fund’s expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period from January 1, 2015 to June 30, 2015.

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

 

 

Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

 

Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.

Note: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

 

Pursuant to Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Funds’ advisory and sub-advisory agreements must be renewed after their initial two-year term: (i) by the vote of the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of Bishop Street Funds (the “Trust”) or by a vote of a majority of the shareholders of the Funds; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the advisory or sub-advisory agreements or “interested persons” of any party thereto, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such renewal.

A Board meeting was held on February 9, 2015 to decide whether to renew the following agreements (the “Agreements”) for additional one-year terms:

 

   

the advisory agreement between Bishop Street Capital Management (the “Adviser”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Bishop Street Hawaii Municipal Bond Fund, Bishop Street High Grade Income Fund, Bishop Street Strategic Growth Fund, and Bishop Street Dividend Value Fund; and

 

   

the sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) on behalf of the Bishop Street Strategic Growth Fund and Bishop Street Dividend Value Fund.

In preparation for the meeting, the Trustees requested that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser furnish information necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. Prior to the meeting, the Independent Trustees of the Funds met to review and discuss the information provided and submitted a request for additional information to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, and information was provided in response to this request. The Trustees used this information, as well as other information that the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and other service providers of the Funds presented or submitted to the Board at the meeting and other meetings held during the prior year, to help them decide whether to renew the Agreements for an additional year.

Specifically, the Board requested and received written materials from the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and other service providers of the Funds regarding: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s services; (ii) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s investment management personnel; (iii) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s operations and financial condition; (iv) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (v) the Funds’ advisory fees paid to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and overall fees and operating expenses compared with peer groups of mutual funds; (vi) the level of the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s profitability from their relationship with the Funds, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates; (vii) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s potential economies of scale; (viii) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance program, including a description of material compliance matters and material compliance violations;

(ix) the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s policies on and compliance procedures for personal securities transactions; and (x) the Funds’ performance compared with peer groups of mutual funds and the Funds’ benchmark indices.

Representatives from the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, along with other Fund service providers, presented additional information and participated in question and answer sessions at the Board meeting to help the Trustees evaluate the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s services, fees and other aspects of the Agreements. The Independent Trustees received advice from independent counsel and met in executive sessions outside the presence of Fund management and the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser.

At the Board meeting, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and other service providers of the Funds, renewed the Agreements. In considering the renewal of the Agreements, the Board considered various factors that they determined were relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser; (ii) the investment performance of the Funds and the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser; (iii) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Funds, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale are being realized by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser; and (v) whether fee levels reflect any economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser for the benefit of Fund investors, as discussed in further detail below.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Funds, including the quality and continuity of the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management personnel, the resources of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, and the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance history and compliance program. The Trustees reviewed the terms of the Agreements. The Trustees also reviewed the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s investment and risk management approaches for the Funds. The Trustees considered that the Adviser supervises and monitors the performance of the Sub-Adviser. The most recent investment adviser registration forms (“Form ADV”) for the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser were provided to the Board, as were the responses of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to a detailed series of questions which included, among other things, information about the background and experience of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds.

The Trustees also considered other services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser such as selecting broker-dealers for executing portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Funds’ investment restrictions, and monitoring compliance with various Fund policies and procedures and with applicable securities laws and regulations. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser were sufficient to support renewal of the Agreements.

Investment Performance of the Funds, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser

The Board was provided with regular reports regarding the Funds’ performance over various time periods, including since their inception, and information regarding the Funds’ performance since the Agreements were last renewed. The Trustees also reviewed reports prepared by the Funds’ administrator comparing the Funds’ performance to their benchmark indices and peer groups of mutual funds as classified by Lipper, an independent provider of investment company data, over various periods of time. Representatives from the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser provided information regarding and led discussions of factors impacting the performance of the Funds, outlining current market conditions and explaining their expectations and strategies for the future. The Trustees determined that the Funds’ performance was satisfactory, or, where the Funds’ performance was materially below their benchmarks and/or peer groups, the Trustees were satisfied by the reasons for the underperformance and/or the steps taken by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in an effort to improve the performance of the Funds. Based on this information, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the investment results that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser had been able to achieve for the Funds were sufficient to support renewal of the Agreements.

Costs of Advisory Services, Profitability and Economies of Scale

In considering the advisory fees payable by the Funds to the Adviser, as well as the fees payable by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser, the Trustees reviewed, among other things, a report of the advisory fees paid to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Trustees also reviewed reports prepared by the Funds’ administrator comparing the Funds’ net and gross expense ratios and advisory fees to those paid by peer groups of mutual funds as classified by Lipper. The Trustees reviewed the management fees charged by the Sub-Adviser to other clients with comparable mandates. The Trustees considered any differences in management fees and took into account the respective demands, resources and complexity associated with the Bishop Street Strategic Growth Fund and Bishop Street Dividend Value Fund and other client accounts as well as the extensive regulatory, compliance and tax regimes to which the Funds are subject. The Trustees also considered that the Adviser, not the Bishop Street Strategic

Growth Fund and Bishop Street Dividend Value Fund, paid the Sub-Adviser pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement and that the fees payable to the Sub-Adviser reflected arms-length negotiations between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Trustees evaluated both the fee under the sub-advisory agreement and the portion of the fee under the advisory agreement retained by the Adviser. The Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the advisory fees were reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services rendered by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser.

The Trustees reviewed the costs of services provided by and the profits realized by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Funds, including both direct benefits and indirect benefits, such as research and brokerage services received under soft dollar arrangements, accruing to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates. The Trustees considered how the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s profitability was affected by factors such as their organizational structures and methods for allocating expenses. The Trustees concluded that the profit margins of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser with respect to the management of the Funds were not unreasonable. The Board also considered the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s commitment to managing the Funds and the Adviser’s willingness to continue its expense limitation and fee waiver arrangements with the Funds.

The Trustees considered the Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s views relating to economies of scale in connection with the Funds as Fund assets grow and the extent to which the benefits of any such economies of scale are shared with the Funds and Fund shareholders. The Board considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those were passed along to the Funds’ shareholders through a graduated advisory fee schedule or other means, including fee waivers. The Trustees recognized that economies of scale are difficult to identify and quantify and are rarely identifiable on a fund-by-fund basis. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that the advisory fees were reasonable in light of the information that was provided to the Trustees by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser with respect to economies of scale.

Renewal of the Agreements

Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above and other factors and information it believed relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, with the assistance of Fund counsel and Independent Trustees’ counsel, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Agreements, including the fees payable thereunder, were fair and reasonable and agreed to renew the Agreements for another year. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any particular factor (or conclusion with respect thereto) or single piece of information that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision, but considered all of the factors together, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors (and conclusions with respect thereto) and information.
