The Fund focuses on those equity securities that it considers attractively valued and seeks to outperform the S&P 500 Index Benchmark through superior stock selection. By emphasizing attractively valued equity securities, the Fund seeks to produce returns that exceed those of the S&P 500 Index. Derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index, may be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest. To the extent the Fund uses derivative, the Fund will primarily use futures contracts to more effectively gain targeted equity exposure from its cash positions. An issuer of a security will be deemed to be located in the United States if: (i) the principal trading market for the security is in the United States, (ii) the issuer is organized under the laws of the United States, or (iii) the issuer derives at least 50% of its revenues or profits from the United States or has at least 50% of its total assets situated in the United States. Investment Process: In managing the Fund, the Sub-Adviser employs a three-step process that combines research, valuation and stock selection. The Sub-Adviser takes an in-depth look at company prospects, which is designed to provide insight into a companys real growth potential. The research findings allow the Sub-Adviser to rank the companies in each sector group according to their relative value. As part of its investment process, the Sub-Adviser seeks to assess the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors on many issuers in the universe in which the Fund invests. The Sub-Advisers assessment is based on an analysis of key opportunities and risks across industries to seek to identify financially material issues with respect to the Funds investments in securities and ascertain key issues that merit engagement with issuers. These assessments may not be conclusive and securities of issuers that may be negatively impacted by such factors may be purchased and retained by the Fund while the Fund may divest or not invest in securities of issuers that may be positively impacted by such factors. On behalf of the Fund, the Sub-Adviser then buys and sells equity securities, using the research and valuation rankings as a basis. In general, the Sub-Adviser buys equity securities that are identified as attractively valued and considers selling them when they appear to be overvalued. Along with attractive valuation, the Sub-Adviser often considers a number of other criteria: catalysts that could trigger a rise in a stocks price high potential reward compared to potential risk temporary mispricings caused by apparent market overreactions.
