Objective

Growth Fund) seeks growth of capital over a long-term time horizon
through investment in a diversified, style-neutral portfolio of small-
and mid-sized stocks.

Investment
Strategy
The Quantex Fund™ employs a quantitative investment strategy that
selects common stocks for investment from a predetermined market
capitalization range. The stocks purchased by the Fund will generally
fall in the small- and mid-cap range of the market, and may either be
growth or value stocks. The Fund will typically be diversified across
all major industry sectors.
The stocks owned by the Fund typically fall in two categories:
- Fallen Angels: Larger companies whose stock prices have declined in recent years but are poised for a possible rebound.
- Rising Stars: Smaller companies with the potential to significantly outperform on both an absolute and relative basis.
Stocks
are screened for inclusion or removal from the Fund’s portfolio
on an annual basis. Stocks in the portfolio whose value has grown or
fallen out of the predetermined market capitalization range are sold.
Meanwhile, new stocks that have fallen or risen into the predetermined
capitalization range are added to the Fund’s portfolio. The
securities purchased by the Fund are generally held for a long-term
period, resulting in low portfolio turnover.
This
investment strategy results in a well-diversified, style-neutral fund
with the potential to achieve highly predictable long-term returns.

Past performance
is not a guarantee of future results.
Performance data indicates period and average annual total returns as
indicated and assumes reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain
distributions. The investment return and principal value of an
investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Management fees
were waived and/or expenses were reimbursed in order to reduce the
operating expenses of The Quantex Fund™ during the periods shown
above. To obtain a prospectus containing more complete information
