**Expenses Example**

The example below is intended to help investors compare the cost of investing in the International Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. 

The example assumes an investor invests $10,000 in the International Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeems all shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that the investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions an investor's costs would be:

| 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | 10 years |
|--------|---------|---------|----------|
| $105   | $328    | $569    | $1,259   |

**Portfolio Turnover Rate**

During the most recent fiscal year, the International Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 2% of the average value of its portfolio. When consistent with best execution, the Fund buys and sells securities through Saturna Brokerage Services, Inc. (SBS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Saturna Capital, which presently charges no commissions on portfolio trades.

#### Principal Investment Strategies

The International Fund diversifies its investments among many countries, favoring those with mature markets (such as Europe and Canada). The Fund invests at least 65% of its assets in companies with their headquarters and major assets and earnings outside the U.S. The International Fund diversifies its investments across industries, companies, and countries. The Fund looks for companies with growing revenues and earnings, favoring companies trading for less than the adviser's assessment of intrinsic value, which typically means companies with low price/earning multiples, low price to cash flow, and higher dividend yields. There is no restriction on the size of companies in which the Fund invests, but it favors larger and more establish firms.

### Principal Risks of Investing

The value of International Fund shares rises and falls as the value of the stocks in which the Fund invests goes up and down. Only consider investing in the Fund if you are willing to accept the risk that you may lose money. Fund share prices, yields, and total returns will change with market fluctuations as well as the fortunes of the countries, industries and companies in which the Fund invests.

The International Fund involves risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. securities. These include fluctuations in currency exchange rates, less public information about securities, less governmental market supervision, and lack of uniform financial, social, and political standards. Foreign investing heightens the risk of confiscatory taxation, seizure or nationalization of assets, establishment of currency controls, or adverse political or social developments that affect investments. Investing in smaller companies may involve higher investment risks in that they often have limited product lines, markets and resources, or their securities may trade less frequently and have greater price fluctuation than those of larger companies. 

### Performance

The following bar chart and table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the International Fund by showing changes in performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns for 1, 5 and 10 years compare to those of a broad-based market index. A fund's past performance (before and after taxes) is not a guarantee of how a fund will perform in the future.

Performance data current to the most recent month-end and quarter-end are available on www.sextantmutualfunds.com.

After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates but do not reflect the impact of any state or local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and likely differ from those shown. After-tax illustrations are not relevant to retirement plans, corporations, trusts, or other investors that are taxed at special rates. In loss periods, the average after-tax total return may be higher than average annual total return because of an assumed deduction of losses from other income.

### Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the International Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank or investment adviser), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your broker-dealer or other financial intermediary's website for more information.
