*Under rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the
"NASD"), a 12b-1 fee may be treated as a sales charge for certain purposes under
those rules. Because the 12b-1 fee is an annual fee charged against the assets
of a Fund, long-term shareholders may indirectly pay more total sales charges
than the economic equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charge permitted by
rules of the NASD. See "Management of the Trust-The Distributors" on p.24 of the
Prospectus.
The purpose of this table is to assist the shareholder in understanding the
various costs and expenses that an investor in the Fund will bear. The above
table reflects a waiver by Signature Broker-Dealer Services, Inc. as
administrator (the "Administrator") of the Trust, of a portion of its
administrative service fees such that, following such waiver, the Administrator
receives administrative service fees from each fund equal on an annual basis to
0.13% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Without this waiver, each Fund's
(except Bond Fund) administrative service fees would be equal on an annual basis
to 0.25% and Bond Fund's would be equal on an annual basis to 0.23%. "Total
Operating Expenses" would be equal to 1.65%, 1.71%, 1.59%, 1.45% and 2.09%,
respectively, in each case of that Fund's average daily net assets. See
"Management of FundManager Funds - The Administrator."
EXAMPLE
You would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment, assuming
(1) 5% gross annual return and (2) redemption at the end of each time period.

THIS EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF FUTURE
EXPENSES WHICH MAY BE MORE OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. THE ASSUMED 5% ANNUAL
RETURN IS HYPOTHETICAL AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR
FUTURE ANNUAL RETURN; ACTUAL RETURN MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THE ASSUMED
AMOUNT.
