Investment objective

The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The objective may be changed by the Fund's Trustees without shareholder approval.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund pursues its investment objective by primarily investing in leveraged company stocks across all market capitalizations. Leveraged companies utilize relatively high levels of debt as part of their capital structure. The Fund's portfolio is managed using a fundamental bottom-up investment process that integrates high-yield credit research and equity analysis focusing on stable and predictable operating companies with leveraged balance sheets. The Fund does not focus on a particular investment style (growth and/or value), but rather seeks the best opportunities across its investable universe. The Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity investments. The Fund will notify shareholders at least 60 days in advance of any change in its investment policy that would enable the Fund to invest, under normal circumstances, less than 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity investments.
