The Fund primarily seeks to buy common stock and may also invest in preferred stock. The Investment Adviser considers large cap securities to be securities that at the time of purchase have a market capitalization within the range of companies included in the S&P 500 Index. The Funds strategy is based on fundamental business analysis and a long -term orientation. The Investment Adviser selects companies based on their qualitative merits, competitive profile and prospective value creation potential. Investments may be sold if they appreciate to levels at or near the higher end of the Investment Advisers estimated ranges of intrinsic value. The Fund is non -diversified and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than would a diversified fund. The Fund seeks to invest in approximately 25 -50 different companies that meet the Investment Advisers prescriptive fundamental criteria.
