(1)Investor Class shares are not available for sale. “Other Expenses” are based on estimated expenses for the current fiscal year for the Investor Class shares.
(2)“Other Expenses” include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses of one basis point. As a result, Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses in the table above do not correlate to the ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets found within the “Financial Highlights” section of this Prospectus, which does not include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.
(3)The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse the Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement do not exceed 1.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the Investor Class shares of the Fund, and do not exceed 0.90% of the average daily net assets for the Institutional Class shares. This expense limitation agreement will continue in effect until January 31, 2024. The Adviser may recoup any waived amount from the Fund pursuant to this agreement if such reimbursement does not cause the Fund to exceed existing expense limitations and the reimbursement is made within three years after the year in which the Adviser incurred the expense. The Fund may have Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement higher than these expense caps as a result of acquired fund fees and expenses or other expenses (such as taxes, interest, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items) that are excluded from the calculation.

Example
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of these periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the contractual expense limitation for one year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:
| 1 Year | 3 Years | 5 Years | 10 Years | |||||||||||
| Investor Class | $118 | $383 | $669 | $1,482 | ||||||||||
| Institutional Class | $93 | $305 | $535 | $1,195 | ||||||||||
Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 146% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies: Under normal conditions, the Fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities. The Fund’s fixed income securities will consist principally of high-yield corporate debt securities (sometimes referred to as “junk bonds”), bank debt (including loan assignments and participations), convertible debt, and U.S. Government securities. The Fund may also invest in investment grade corporate debt securities, as well as the debt of foreign companies. Foreign companies, or non-U.S. companies, are companies domiciled or headquartered outside of the U.S., or whose primary business activities or principal trading markets are located outside of the U.S. High yield securities typically pay high current interest. They also offer the potential for capital appreciation when purchased at a discount to par value or when favorable company-specific events occur. The Fund’s investment advisor performs deep fundamental credit analysis in selecting debt securities for the Fund, and the Fund’s holdings will not be limited by credit quality, sector, or geography. The Fund’s investments in debt instruments will not be limited in duration, but typically will be in securities having a duration of two to six years at the time of purchase. Duration is a measure of a debt security’s price sensitivity taking into account a debt security’s cash flows over time. For example, a security with a duration of five years would likely drop five percent in value if interest rates rose one percentage point.
In addition, the Fund may invest in equity securities, consisting principally of dividend-paying common stock or preferred stock. The Fund will typically seek dividend-paying equity and preferred securities that it believes are undervalued based on internal appraisals of such securities’ intrinsic values. The Fund typically determines the intrinsic value of a company to be the present value of a company’s expected future stream of free cash flows discounted by an appropriate discount rate. After estimating the intrinsic value of the business as a whole, the Fund adjusts for debt, cash, and other potential capital (such as minority interest) to arrive at an estimate of the equity security’s intrinsic value. If a dividend paying common stock or preferred stock stops paying dividends after its purchase by the Fund, the Fund would not be required to sell the security.
The Adviser may shift the Fund’s assets among various types of income-producing securities based upon changing market conditions and its own credit analyses to determine the creditworthiness and potential for capital appreciation of a security.
In certain market conditions, the Adviser may determine that it is appropriate for the Fund to hold a significant cash position for an extended period. The Fund expects that it may maintain substantial cash positions when the Adviser determines that such cash holdings, given the risks the Adviser believes to be present in the market, are more beneficial to shareholders than investment in additional securities.
Principal Risks: There is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund. This risk may increase during times of significant market volatility. The following risks could affect the value of your investment:
•General Market Risk; Recent Market Events: In the past decade financial markets throughout the world have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. Securities selected for the Fund’s portfolio may decline in value more than the overall stock market.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, financial markets in the United States and around the world experienced extreme and, in many cases, unprecedented volatility and severe losses due to the global pandemic caused by COVID-19. The pandemic has resulted in a wide range of social and economic disruptions, including closed borders, voluntary or compelled quarantines of large populations, stressed healthcare systems, reduced or prohibited domestic or international travel, and supply chain disruptions affecting the United States and many other countries. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced particularly large losses as a result of these disruptions, and such disruptions may continue for an extended period of time or reoccur in the future to a similar or greater extent. In response, the U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have taken extraordinary actions to support the domestic economy and financial markets, resulting in very low interest rates and in some cases negative yields. It is unknown how long circumstances

related to the pandemic will persist, whether they will reoccur in the future, whether efforts to support the economy and financial markets will be successful, and what additional implications may follow from the pandemic. The impact of these events and other epidemics or pandemics in the future could adversely affect Fund performance.
Furthermore, the Russian military invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the resulting actions taken by the United States and European Union in levying broad economic sanctions against Russia could continue to have adverse effects on the price and liquidity of investments, which could adversely affect the financial markets, and therefore, Fund performance.
•Interest Rate Risk: When interest rates rise, the value of previously-issued bonds and other debt securities decreases. Further, as interest rates rise after a period of historically low interest rates, it may cause potentially sudden and unpredictable effects on the markets and the Fund's investments, and therefore Fund performance may be adversely affected.
•Debt/Fixed Income Securities Risk: An increase in interest rates typically causes a fall in the value of the debt securities in which the Fund may invest. The value of your investment in the Fund may change in response to changes in the credit ratings of the Fund’s portfolio of debt securities. With interest rates rising in the United States, the Fund may be subject to heightened interest rate risk. Moreover, rising interest rates or lack of market participants may lead to decreased liquidity in the bond and loan markets, making it more difficult for the Fund to sell its holdings at a time when the Adviser might wish to sell. Lower rated securities (“junk bonds”) are generally subject to greater risk of loss of your money than higher rated securities. Issuers may (increase) decrease prepayments of principal when interest rates (fall) increase, affecting the maturity of the debt security and causing the value of the security to decline. Many debt securities utilize the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) as the reference or benchmark rate for variable interest rate calculations. However, the UK Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, no longer persuades nor requires banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR and certain other reference rates. Although many LIBOR rates were phased out as of the end of 2021, as originally intended, a selection of widely used U.S. dollar-based LIBOR rates will continue to be published until June 2023 in order to assist with the transition away from LIBOR. The impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR and the transition to an alternative rate on the Fund’s portfolio remains uncertain. There can be no guarantee that financial instruments that transition to an alternative reference rate will retain the same value or liquidity as they would otherwise have had. This announcement and any additional regulatory or market changes that occur as a result of the transition away from LIBOR and the adoption of alternative reference rates may have an adverse impact on the value of the Fund’s investments, performance or financial condition, and might lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets that currently rely on LIBOR to determine interest rates.
•Credit Risk: The risk of investing in bonds and debt securities whose issuers may not be able to make interest and principal payments. In turn, issuers’ inability to make payments may lower the credit quality of the security and lead to greater volatility in the price of the security.
•High Yield Risk: The risk of loss on investments in high yield securities or “junk bonds.” These securities are rated below investment grade, are usually less liquid, have greater credit risk than investment grade debt securities, and their market values tend to be volatile. They are more likely to default than investment grade securities when adverse economic and business conditions are present.
•Liquidity Risk: The risk, due to certain investments trading in lower volumes or to market and economic conditions, that the Fund may be unable to find a buyer for its investments when it seeks to sell them or to receive the price it expects based on the Fund’s valuation of the investments. Events that may lead to increased redemptions, such as market disruptions, may also negatively impact the liquidity of the Fund’s investments when it needs to dispose of them. If the Fund is forced to sell its investments at an unfavorable time and/or under adverse conditions in order to meet redemption requests, such sales could negatively affect the Fund. Liquidity issues may also make it difficult to value the Fund’s investments.
•Cash Position Risk: The ability of the Fund to meet its objective may be limited to the extent it holds assets in cash (or cash equivalents) or is otherwise uninvested.
•Changes in Tax Laws. All statements contained in this Prospectus regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Fund are based on current law, which is subject to change at any time, potentially with retroactive effect. For example, tax legislation enacted in 2017 (the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act) resulted in fundamental changes to the Code (some of which are set to expire in the next few years). More recently, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will add a 15% alternative minimum tax on large corporations and a 1% excise tax on repurchases of stock by publicly traded corporations and certain affiliates. The excise tax on repurchases of stock may cause some corporations in which the Fund invests to reduce liquidity opportunities for its investors, which could potentially reduce the value of your investment in the Fund. Such legislation, as well as possible future U.S. tax legislation and administrative guidance, could materially affect the tax consequences of your investment in the Fund and the Fund’s investments or holding structures.
Performance: The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year for Institutional Class shares (the only Class currently available for sale). The table shows how the Fund’s average annual returns over 1, 5 and 10 years compare with those of a broad-based

Institutional Class shares commenced operations on August 16, 2010. Performance shown prior to August 16, 2010 reflects the performance of Investor Class shares, which commenced operations on July 2, 2007 and ceased operations on January 31, 2014, and includes expenses that are not applicable to and are higher than those of Institutional Class shares. After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal stated income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your situation and may differ from those shown. In certain cases, the figure representing “Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares” may be higher than the other return figures for the same period. A higher after-tax return results when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and provides an assumed tax deduction that benefits the investor. Furthermore, the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to those who hold their shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or IRAs.
