<u>Material Conflicts of Interest</u>. Polen Capital provides advisory services to other clients which invest in securities of the same type in which the Fund invests. The Adviser is aware of its obligation to ensure that when orders for the same securities are entered on behalf of the Fund and other accounts, the Fund receives fair and equitable allocation of these orders, particularly where affiliated accounts may participate. The Adviser attempts to mitigate potential conflicts of interest by adopting policies and procedures regarding trade execution, brokerage allocation and order aggregation which provide a methodology for ensuring fair treatment for all clients in situations where orders cannot be completely filled or filled at different prices.

<u>Compensation</u>. The Adviser compensates the Fund's Portfolio Managers for management of the Fund. Each Portfolio Manager's compensation consists of fixed and variable components taking into account individual performance as well as the performance of the Adviser.
