Gillespie, Vice Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund focusing its investments in global opportunities within four industries: gaming, alcoholic beverages, tobacco and aerospace/defense. The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equity securities of companies of all capitalizations. Norton said, �We are pleased that the fund has achieved such strong results in 2007, and we�re proud of our long-term track record. We continue to focus on economically independent growth and our target sectors, being defensive in nature, tend to be resilient in all types of economic and market environments. �As investors focus on the issues of the day like a deteriorating credit market and subprime lending, we take a long-term approach, honing in on defensive sectors that we believe are well positioned to benefit when the economy is moderating and the broad market is struggling,� said Norton. According to Lipper, Vice Fund�s five-year return through December 31, 2007 ranks it in the top 2 percent among 507 funds in the multi-cap core category, based on total fund returns. The Fund also ranks in the top 3 percent among 669 funds for the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, as well as in the top 4 percent among 883 funds for the one-year period.

The Fund is non-diversified, meaning it may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund. Therefore, the Fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund. The Fund invests in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. The Fund also invests in smaller companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. The funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses must be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information about the investment company, and it may be obtained from www.vicefund.com, or by calling Shareholder Services toll free at 866-264-8783.
