* Performance for all share classes is from inception date of 4/10/12.
The above performance data is historical. Total returns for periods greater than one year are annualized. Past performance does not guarantee future results and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fees and/or to make payments to limit Fund expenses, until April 30, 2013 so that the total annual operating expenses of the Fund do not exceed 1.15%, 0.90% and 1.90% for Investor Shares, Institutional Shares and Class C Shares, respectively. After that time, the adviser has agreed to waive its management fees and/or to make payments to limit Fund expenses, until January 31, 2014 so that the total annual operating expenses of the Fund do not exceed 1.35%, 1.90% and 2.10% for Investor Shares, Institutional Shares and Class C Shares, respectively. Please review the Fund's prospectus for more detail on the expense waiver. Results shown reflect the waiver, without which the results would have been lower. A Fund's performance, especially for very short periods of time, should not be the sole factor in making your investment decisions.

The above performance does not reflect the deduction of this fee. If reflected, the fee will reduce the performance quoted.
